IS ASTRONOMICAL WORSHIP THE ORIGIN OF THE WORSHIP OF GOD?
The Egyptian gods and goddesses were numerous and are pictured in many paintings and murals. It needs to be said in the beginning that when you study Egypt and their Cosmology you quickly see that they were "monotheistic" in that Egypt understood God to be the "Many in the One". God to them had many attributes and these were depicted separately in the myths of the "gods". All of these "gods" made up the One Ultimate Creator. Certain gods were seen in the constellations, and others were represented by actual astronomical bodies. The constellation Orion, for instance, represented Osiris, who was the god of the Divine principle of death, rebirth, and the afterlife.
